** Journalism Class News **

High school journalism, taught by Dr. Cristina Meier, is a class of energetic and enthusiastic 9th grade students who are ready to explore and to share topics that are useful and valuable to the PACA community.  This week, the PACA Warrior Post, is set to publish their first edition of 15 unique stories written by our student reporters.  We want to invite you to visit the newspaper website and take a look at what they have written.  Feel free to comment or respond. 

Here is the link to the site: THE WARRIOR POST

Our motto for this year is: Daily News You Can't Get Just Anywhere

Our Verse for this year is: Luke 2:10 (paraphrased) - Have No Fear.  Great News is Here. Bringing Joy For All People.


**Character First**

Character First is PACA’s Social-Emotional Learning program for elementary students. The Character First topics that we will focus on with elementary students this school year are: self-control, forgiveness, respect, gratefulness, and attentiveness. 

We will begin our next Character First rotation on September 2, focused on the topic of forgiveness. Students will learn that forgiveness is “Letting go of bitterness and revenge.”

During each rotation, elementary students participate in an assembly and small groups. As students learn and practice important characteristics, our goal is for them to grow in their personal relationships and in their relationship with God.   


**MAP Tests**

Each year, students in Kindergarten through 8th grade take the MAP (Measure of Academic Progress) test. Elementary students (Kindergarten-5th Grade) will take MAP tests in Reading, Language, & Math during the weeks of August 26-30, September 2-6, and September 9-11. A letter with more information and specific test schedules for each grade level was sent home.

Esta semana, o PACA Warrior Post publicará sua primeira edição de 15 histórias únicas escritas por nossos alunos-repórteres. Queremos convidá-los a visitar o site do jornal e verificar o que eles escreveram.  Sinta-se à vontade para comentar ou responder.

Aqui está o link para o site: THE WARRIOR POST

**Character First** 

O Character First é o Programa de Aprendizagem Socioemocional da PACA para os alunos do Ensino Fundamental. Os temas que serão abordados no programa Character First ao longo deste ano letivo são: autocontrole, perdão, respeito, gratidão e atenção.

Iniciaremos o próximo tema do Character First no dia 2 de setembro, com foco no perdão. Os alunos estão aprendendo que o perdão é "Deixando de lado a amargura e a vingança."

Durante cada sessão, os alunos participarão de uma assembleia e de pequenos grupos. Nosso objetivo é que os alunos cresçam em seus relacionamentos pessoais e com Deus enquanto aprendem e praticam essas características.
